Optimized Performance for the
Most Demanding Applications
The Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families
deliver the highest performance of Intel® Xeon® processors for
enterprise, mission-critical, and high-performance computing (HPC)
deployments. With up to 10 cores and 20 threads, up to 30 MB of
last-level cache, and supporting up to 32 GB DIMMs, the Intel Xeon
processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families are ideal for
large data centers, ERP, SCM, and CRM applications, and the
most demanding scientific and financial workloads.
Mission-Critical Reliability
Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families expand
on the reliability features IT managers trust in Intel Xeon processors
and expect in mission-critical solutions, such as Machine Check
Architecture Recovery (MCA-R), with more advanced enhancements.
• Double Data Device Correction (DDDC) – extends reliability by
recovering from two DRAM device failures, instead of a single
failure of SDDC, helping maximize uptime.
• Partial Memory Mirroring – enables more flexible, effective,
and cost-efficient memory mirroring of critical areas instead of
all memory, reducing server energy demands while protecting
your most important data.
Faster, Stronger, Enterprise-Wide Data Protection
IT services can now deliver high-performance security throughout
the enterprise with systems based on the Intel Xeon processor
E7-8800/4800/2800 product families. The Intel Xeon processor
E7-8800/4800/2800 product families make encryption software
faster and stronger by accelerating secure transactions with Intel®
Advanced Encryption Standard – New Instructions1 (Intel® AES-NI).
Intel AES-NI delivers a high-performance engine for online transactions
and ubiquitous, enterprise-wide data protection using supported
software from leading vendors, such as Oracle, Microsoft, and McAfee.

Feature Benefits
Up to 10-core/20-thread processing • Performance, scalability, and headroom for the most data-demanding, mission-critical applications
• Ideal for virtualized data centers and cloud computing
• Extremely powerful processing for High-performance Computing (HPC) buildouts
• Perfect for expandable server deployments in scalable, cost-efficient enterprise data centers
32 GB DIMM support • Large memory support (up to 2 TB per 4-socket system) for massively scalable deployments
and mission-critical workloads
• 102 GB/s memory bandwidth supports extreme, demanding computing applications
Up to 30 MB last-level cache • Accelerates processing by bringing – and keeping – more data closer to the cores and reducing memory reads
Improved performance/efficiency • Built on the 32 nm Intel® process technology designed for high standards and expectations in performance,
features, and energy efficiency
• 25 percent more cores and last-level cache, plus twice the memory capacity in the same power envelope as
Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series
• LV DIMM support with reduced power memory buffers help contain operating costs while improving performance
on large memory systems
• Intel® Intelligent Power Technology,3 with integrated power gates (C6 core and package), independently reduces
core power to 0W at idle and reduces package power to near-0W at idle to help reduce power costs in large
data centers
Designed for high security deployments • Intel® Advanced Encryption Standard – New Instructions1 (Intel® AES-NI) protects sensitive business assets
and private data with faster and more advanced secure transactions for enterprise and cloud computing
• Intel® Trusted Execution Technology2 (Intel® TXT) helps ensure a secure virtual environment by protecting
virtual platforms against malicious software prior to VM launch
Mission-critical/HPC-level
reliability features
• Machine Check Architecture recovery (MCA-R) keeps servers alive and operating in the event of certain
memory errors
• Double Device Data Correction (DDDC) adds greater protection against data loss than Single Device Data
Correction (SDDC) by recovering data if two memory devices fail
• Partial Memory Mirroring enables lower cost, more flexible data protection by selectively mirroring the
most critical memory areas
Hardened Protection for Virtual Environments
The Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families
integrate enhanced protection for virtual environments with Intel®
Trusted Execution Technology2 (Intel® TXT). This protection layer
hardens virtual environments in cloud computing and enterprise data
centers against malicious software insertions – before virtual machines
(VMs) launch. And Intel TXT keeps VMs protected by measuring and
matching known, good environments against unknown code, and then
blocking any-thing suspicious before launching the VMs. Invading code
pieces, such as rootkits, are isolated during bootup, enforcing a safe,
protected platform for VMs.
Unmatched Power Efficiency
The Intel Xeon processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families, with
Intel® Intelligent Power Technology,3 deliver higher performance from
25 percent more cores, threads, and last-level cache, at the same maximum
rated power (TDP) as the Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series. Intel
Xeon processor E7-8800/4800/2800 product families’ cores can independently
shut down to 0W when idle, and the entire processor can
reach near-0W power at idle, delivering unmatched power/performance
efficiency of Intel Xeon processors. Support for low-voltage (LV) DIMMS
and integrated reduced-power memory buffers further reduce energy
demand, which help cut operating costs – while delivering the performance
needed in today’s data centers.
